How long was the Holy Family in Egypt?
In Luke's Gospel, the Holy Family never went to Egypt. After the forty days for Mary's purification, they took Jesus from Bethlehem to Jerusalem, to be presented at the Temple, then returned to their home in Nazareth. They remained in Nazareth, because Luketells us that they travelled with Jesus each year from Nazareth to Jerusalem for the Passover.In Matthew's Gospel, the magi asked King Herod where to find the baby born to be king of the Jews. King Herod feared for his kingdom and sought to kill Jesus. This must have been at least a few years before he died of old age, because history tells us that he was not very concerned about the inheritance for his sons, and so must have feared for his own tenure. The young family fled to Egypt and remained there until Herod had died, but returned during the short reign of Arhelaus. They would have spent several years in Egypt.
